The Jets and New England Patiots engaged in an often-vitriolic war of words surrounding last Sunday's 28-21 New York win. NFL VP of football operations Ray Anderson said before the game that trash-talking would be considered if an on-field hit warranted discipline.

Taylor and Holmes are friends who played together before the Steelers traded the receiver to the Jets last April.

"I love him and that's my boy, but when we get between those white lines, it's a whole different deal," Taylor told the Post.

"I'm going to try to be as disrespectful as possible once we get between those white lines. Friendship doesn't enter into it then."

Goodell said the NFL will review policies around trash-talking in the offseason.
